SEPT. 6 ~ Full Moon Ancestral Water Healing Ritual (VICTORIA)

Saturday, September 30, 5:00 – 7:00pm
MĀ Wellness & Yoga (Sky Studio), Victoria, BC

Once a year, during the sacred Vedic/Yogic fortnight of the ancestors (Pitru Paksha)—we are given a rare opening to honour those who came before us, heal our lineages, and receive the blessings of our ancestors. This powerful 16-day lunar window between full moon and new moon is considered one of the most potent and auspicious occasions to make offerings, prayers, and gestures of reverence to our ancestors.

In the rush of modern life, we rarely make time to tend to our roots. But this is the kind of tending that can support meaningful and transformative shifts in ourselves, our families, and our lineages – including the repatterining of long-standing trauma. This ancestral water healing ritual allows us to lay down what we’ve carried, honour what came before, and receive the guidance that helps us walk forward with more clarity, courage and grace.

Together, we will chant ancestral mantras, make elemental offerings, and create both a personal ancestral altar and a collective community mandala—an embodied prayer of remembrance and gratitude. The water healing ritual at the heart of this evening will support the release of ancestral blockages and the flow of blessings through our lines.


What you’ll experience:

  • A safe and sacred space to call in and honour your lineage
  • Both personal and collective altar-building
  • Guided water healing ritual for release and renewal
  • Mantras, offerings, and connection to ancestral wisdom
  • A deeper connection to your roots, inner wisdom, and spiritual support


All are welcome—no previous experience with ancestral ritual is needed.

YOUR FACILITATOR

Satya Amrita Kumari Jehman (Vedic Priestess Temple)

Born into the Vedic lineage, Satya has been living the traditional path of yoga all her life – with a more concentrated practice over the last 23 years. She carries the gift of ceremony and ritual by the grace of her ancestors for the past decade. Satya has completed a year-long Yoga Apprenticeship in 2015 (Vijnana Yoga RYT 200), and a deep dive study into jnana yoga (Vedic scripture study/self inquiry) with her teacher in India amid a trio of winters from 2011-2013. While there in 2016, Satya was initiated into the Sidh Kunjika Stotram – the highest call to Maha Shakti (Divine Mother). She has been furthering her yogic studies and practice in India with regular trips there for the past 16 years.

Satya leads ceremony and ritual for healing, renewal, union, rites of passage, and other occasions as requested. These are conducted both with groups and in private sessions.

Encouraged by her teachers, Satya is a facilitator of Retreats, Workshops, Ceremony, Ritual  & One-on-One Guide on Salt Spring Island and surrounding communities, in India – as well as online. Satya offers from the deepest place in her with utmost respect and reverence to her ancestors, to You, to the Divine, and to the Self.

“Thank you for sharing the wisdom/traditions of your lineage, Satya. I appreciated the chance to participate in a ritual that is outside my culture and spiritual background. I appreciated the sense of sacred community and sharing, the joining of voices in chanting – and the beautiful space.” ~ Shawna K

“I most appreciated it was culturally/spiritually authentic. Your knowledge, study and lineage was important to me, to attend.” ~ Leila R

“I very much appreciated the depth of learning and the connection of ritual and ceremony to learning about the Goddess. I had some great ’a-ha’ moments. I was very moved by the inclusion of your own lineage in the ceremony, Satya. It’s an incredible gift.” ~ Christie R

“Thank you for providing our community with such a beautiful ceremony. You have a gift! And I felt like I was in India. I am still feeling the effects of the ceremony with a kind of wild goddess energy. It was very special that you brought water from the Ganges River.” ~ Laurissa W

“I wanted to share with you about my mother’s healing following the ceremony. She was deep in my prayer during the ceremony, and her issue has cleared, and it didn’t come back. I shared with her about the ceremony, and she said she was guessing this was the case. I’m so grateful! Thanks for all.” ~ Karin D
